Why CBD Helps: The Science of Balance
Why We Need CBD:
CBD is naturally produced in our bodies, where it plays a key role in our “endocannabinoid system.”
Cannabinoids like CBD interact with our CB1 & CB2 receptors to regulate our pain, inflammation, immune system, stress levels and mood. By supplementing with plant-based cannabinoids, we can help our body to reduce our stresses and pains and to restore a natural state of balance.
- CB1 Receptors are found primarily in the brain and through the body, where they help to regulate coordination, movement, pain, emotions, mood, thinking and appetite.
- CB2 Receptors are found primarily among the immune system, where they help to manage inflammation and muscle pain.
The Benefits of CBD – Rescuing Our Overcharged Body.
Many of us find ourselves overstressed and undernourished due to being overworked and poorly fed. As a result, our bodies are being overloaded and thrown out of balance with nature. It’s this imbalance that can cause our pain & anxiety levels, sleep and overall wellness to suffer greatly.
Clinical Endocannabinoid Deficiency Syndrome (CEDS)
Clinical Endocannabinoid Deficiency Syndrome is the scientific theory that the stresses of modern life (in addition to genetic causes) are why some people may suffer from a variety of severe or chronic ailments. Such stresses and genetics may cause some people to not produce enough cannabinoids in their body.
If a person is deficient in cannabinoids, their body’s endocannabinoid system may lack the tools to maintain a healthy state of balance. Over time, this could lead to someone developing severe issues such as:
- Chronic Pain
- Inflammation
- Problems with Sleeping
- Anxiety Disorders
- Depression
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
- Migraine Headaches
- Fibromyalgia
- Parkinson’s
- Schizophrenia
- Multiple Sclerosis
- Weakened Immune System
Restoring Our Body’s Natural Balance.
For those suffering from Clinical Endocannabinoid Deficiency Syndrome, supplementing with plant-based cannabinoids can give their body the tools to restore balance in the body. How CBD works is by replenishing the body with healthy levels of cannabinoids, and those suffering from chronic or severe issues such as anxiety, sleep disorders, depression and pain may find significant or at least noticeable improvements to their quality of life.
